This works, or if the pieces are big enough and you discover after, you could fish the carrots and potatoes out, nuke them, and put them back in.

Yeah, pull the seafood all out and let it sit in a little broth so it doesn’t dry out. Cook the rest of the pot so the vegetables cool.

I’ve never had an issue - use my instapot. For some reason it didn’t work this time, though.

If you are worried, pull the carrots and potatoes out. Throw them in some stock and cook until tender.

I didn’t realize it until hours later at dinner. Any solution?
